510times

Every number was expected about that many times after 89 draws, and they scatter around it. Warm means more than expected, cool means fewer — and a cold number arriving is exactly what cold numbers do.

Its nearest twin

Shares 2 of 5 numbers (9, 27) and 0 of 1 stars with the draw of 10 October 2019 — its closest relative in 89 draws. Chance gave a match this close a 100% likelihood somewhere in that history.

From the draw just before (20 January 2020): nothing carried over. Chance says 45% of draws repeat at least one number. Stars: none repeated (10% expected).

Sum and shape

119

The numbers add up to 119 — the 48th percentile of all possible tickets, around a middle of 120. No two numbers side by side. 37% of draws have at least one such pair.

The longest wait in this draw

42 had not appeared for 34 draws. A number waits about 9 on average, and a wait this long was not a signal — the machine has no memory of it.

    • Where chance put the count

    The rings take the ≈1.9M lines the counts imply and assume an evenly spread crowd. Furthest from that: Match 3 plus Bonus Ball — 1,213 winners, 14% more than the 1.1k an even spread gives. The numbers drawn were a little more popular than average — that is the crowd, not the machine.
